Editorial Note Alexander McQueen draws from its longstanding subversive instinct for this pearl skull necklace, cast in silver-tone brass for the AW26 season. The house's signature skull pendant sits at the centre, framed by pearl detailing that holds a considered tension between the refined and the raw. Designed to fall at the collarbone, it layers cleanly over a crew neck or wears directly against skin. Slips into an inside jacket pocket. Size & Fit One size. Designed to sit at the collarbone, with a length suited to layering over a crew neck or wearing against bare skin. Lightweight construction with a substantial feel owing to the brass composition.

Frequently Asked Questions What are the dimensions of this necklace, and how does it sit on the body? The necklace is designed to fall at the collarbone, making it versatile enough to wear close to bare skin or layered over a crew neck. The length is calibrated to the collarbone position rather than a longer drop, keeping the skull pendant as the visual centrepiece. How does brass affect the weight and feel of the piece? Brass is a dense alloy that gives jewellery a perceptibly heavier hand than silver-plated zinc alternatives, lending this piece a quality feel despite its compact scale. The silver-tone finish is applied over the brass base, giving a cooler, more refined appearance without the premium cost of solid silver. How should I care for this necklace to maintain the finish? Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth after wear to remove oils and moisture. Avoid prolonged sun exposure and contact with water, which can accelerate tarnishing of the silver-tone finish over time. Storing in a pouch or box when not worn will help preserve the surface.
